exchange/area code confusion
I don't know if they have done it yet, but I know that
New York Bell is also planning to use "area codes" as
exchanges in New York City.
The reason is simply that they ran out of exchanges.
To make a call out of the local area code you now have
to prefix the number with a 1. Something you didn't
have to do until recently.
